T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (TALL) represents expansion of cells arrested at specific stages of thymic development with the underlying genetic abnormality often determining the stage of maturation arrest. Although their outcome has been improved with current therapy, survival rates remain only around 50% at 5 years and patients may...

Alterations inactivating the tumor suppressor gene PTEN drive the development of solid and hematological cancers, such as T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL), whereby PTEN loss defines poor-prognosis patients. We investigated the metabolic rewiring induced by PTEN loss in T-ALL, aiming at identifying novel metabolic vulnerabilities. We...
